Diaphyseal giant cell tumor with multiple relapses in a skeletally immature patient: a case report.
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Giant cell tumor (GCT) is an aggressive osteolytic lesion mostly affecting the meta-epiphyses of long bones at skeletal maturity. Occurrence of the GCT in diaphysis is a rare entity in adult and exceptionally rare in pediatric population. This is the only third diaphyseal case reported in pediatric population. We report a case of recurrent diaphyseal GCT in a skeletally immature patient of 15-year-old male at the right radius after previous resection with plate and screw fixation. Upon optimal investigations, en-bloc resection of the tumor with radial resection and ulna centralization with wrist arthrodesis was done for a campanacci stage III GCT. The patient had an uneventful recovery without recurrence for 2 years and 2 months following surgery. The main challenge relies on accurate diagnosis due to uncommon location that hinders adequate treatment plan, therefore diagnosis should be solely based on histopathology findings.
